Real Time Trade Matching (RTTM)/TRACE Interface For Firms Reporting via NSCC

FINRA has issued its RTTM messaging specifications for NSCC participants submitting trade reports to FINRA/TRACE to satisfy regulatory requirements. All participants that use RTTM interactive messaging for TRACE Reporting are advised to refer to this document.

 

Please note that TRACE only supports the submission of Instructs via the RTTM interface. Cancels, corrections and reversals of Regulatory trade reports must be performed using the TRACE Web site.

 

NSCC recommends that firms report Agency Debt directly to TRACE, away from the RTTM/TRACE interface, however, this document describes to what degree the Interface will support Agency Debt reporting in relation to RTTM and TRACE processing.

 

For more information concerning the NSCC's RTTM system and procedures, please refer to documentation and notices published on the NSCC Web site.
